At BC Cancer, we have a number of Nurse Practitioners working in various settings with diverse populations.

They also take part in research clinical trials and drive patient-focused research. They are part of the leadership team and are key players in NP role development and evaluation.
Most of the NPs at BC Cancer work with a variety of cancer patient populations, including patients diagnosed with hematological, lung, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, breast, brain, and head and neck cancers. Some NPs at BC Cancer have a more generalist focus, providing primary care and surveillance for those who are undergoing treatment or have experienced cancer at some point in their life as well as provide end of life care. In total, we currently have 22 NPs working at BC cancer in full and part time positions around the province.
